Each week we pick the hitting and pitching prospects from each level (AAA, AA, A+, A, Short Season-A and Rookie league) who, in our opinion, had the best week. We\u2019re always on the lookout for candidates, so tweet us (@Prospects1500<\/a>,\u00a0@PaulTheMartin<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0@Scotty_Ballgame<\/a>) when you see a great performance.<\/p>\n

Martin picks his POTW hitters and pitchers for each level, while Greene presents other names at each level that are just as deserving of POTW honors. Enjoy, and make sure you\u2019re keeping an eye out for these prospects in your dynasty leagues.<\/p>\n

AAA<\/span><\/h3>\n

Hitter: Brandon Lowe<\/a>, OF (Tampa Bay Rays, #15)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Durham Bulls\u00a0(6 G, .400\/.464\/1.080, 10 H, 5 HR, 2 2B)<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s safe to say Lowe\u00a0is adjusting to AAA. After a rough debut, the 2017 FSL MVP has 5 HR over the past 4 games. He was a huge fan of whatever JT Brubaker<\/a> was tossing on Saturday when\u00a0Lowe busted 2 bombs and tallied 5 RBI. It isn’t the first time he found trouble adjusting to a promotion. Last season, after tearing up A+, Lowe struggled in the Southern League slashing .253\/.270\/.389 in his final 24 games. It was quicker assimilation to AAA this season as he is only 14 games into the sample and beginning to scorch. Keep an eye on this hot streak; he could push his way up to the majors sometime soon.<\/p>\n

Brandon Lowe is no longer welcome at Victory Field.<\/p>\n

He hits his third home run of the series — second tonight — to put the Bulls back on top, 5-3.<\/p>\n
